I finally have a surgery date scheduled. December 27th is my date. Yay!!!!! Been a long road trying to decide whether this was what I wanted to do or not. I've fought with being overweight my entire life and now at 49 years of age, I know what I want to do. I'm so excited, scared and nervous. I know this tool will not only help me become lighter but also healthier emotionally as well as physically. Hoping this short time period goes by quickly.
